Our speaker is Jim Crosthwaite, Executive Director Arts Council of Placer County (ACPC).
Jim is a graduate of Placer High School and retired after a combined 30 years with Cities of Roseville and Rocklin.
He will provide new and exiting news of what all has been happening under his one year watch over the county arts non-profit organization.
The community grant program has 2 funding cycles during the year. It is a great way to help artists and arts organizations within the county. The range of monies disbursed to those who qualify is anywhere from $500 to $5,000. Many arts related programs are presented by ACPC during the year. The highlight at this time of the year is the FREE annual Placer Artists Studios Tour. The Placer County Board of Supervisors presented a Commendation to ACPC in honor of the 25th anniversary of the annual tour, which is free to the public. The self guided Tour dates are Nov. 9-11, 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
